City of Armagh won their first ever First Trust Ulster Senior Cup final on Tuesday night and celebrated in some style.

After the trophy was handed over and the cheers had rung round a Kingspan Stadium that housed hundreds of Armagh supporters, they all erupted in unison to sing 'Boys From the County Armagh'.

The feeling could hardly have been any sweeter after a victory that required a thrilling second half revival. Ballymena had led 13-3 midway through the second period but when Adrian Hamilton faced 10 minutes in the sin-bin after a late tackle on man of the match Cormac Fox, the game turned on its head.

It was a fitting way to cap a historic night for a club that are well and truly on the up. The success added to their recent SONI Ulster Premiership title and promotion to Division 2A mean it's been a thrilling 2017 for the side who now sit fourth in Ireland's third tier.
